4-27 Striper fishing

Had the privilege of getting out with Charlie Taylor and a few of his buddies on Tuesday for some trophy rockfish. Met up Charlie at 4:30AM and headed up to point look out. I believe we got there at around 6:20ish. The car ride didn't seem long at all with all the hilarious stories Charlie, John, and Jimmy had (I'm bad with names but I think Jimmy's nickname was Zig/zeek?). Anyways, we met up with the rest of the guys and loaded up onto Captain Eddie Davis' boat. It was cold and windy....

We started trolling for a bit and it wasn't long before we got our first bite

Then we went into a dry spell and went awhile with a fish so some of us took a nap

We had our limit by 11AM so we headed back in where another Charlie filleted our fish for us and we headed home! Had a great time and can't wait to get out again!

If there are any errors hopefully Charlie will chime in to correct them.

Re: 4-27 Striper fishing

Haha! so true!

The grandson, Charlie?, really knew what he was doing and if I didn't know better he was running the show! Capt. Eddie seem to have full faith in him and just hung out like one of us and let the young man do his thing. I don't think we had a single tangled line or lost rig and we even had some close encounters with crab pots!

Nobody bothered to measure the fish but here's a picture to give you an idea of the size
